Close Aol Account

[mintymow]

My husband had a stroke and can no longer use the internet. I would like to close his AOL email account but can't find how to do it. Its mostly rubbish or promotions in there now anyway so it might just as well be closed. Any ideas?

The best way to cancel your AOL Email Address online is to first log into your AOL Instant Messenger account. From there click "Edit" under your screen name. Type something in that's generic such as "000." Press "Submit." Click the "Edit" button under the "Contact Email Address." Type in "000." Press "Submit." Open your AOL Email account. Delete all of your AOL e-mails. If you do not access your e-mail account for six months, then your AOL e-mail account will stay deleted.

I will post the web link as well mintymow You can cancel the account by phone as well.

The other option if you don't get anywhere with trying to close it is to just stop using it. Useless spam may build up in it but does that matter?
